This café overlooks Pass Beach, known for its superb surf break, so you can order takeaway from the kiosk to enjoy by the waves, or stop to eat on the picnic tables. Pass Café is open for breakfast from 7am to 11.30am and lunch from 12pm to 2.30pm and is fully licensed to serve alcohol alongside hot drinks and fresh juices. The menu is heaving with breakfast staples like pancake stacks, eggs on sourdough and a hearty Brekky Burger, or you can opt for the healthy vegan Nourish Bowl, a mix of greens, roasted pumpkin and sweet potato.

I’ll always adore The Pass (an iconic break at the end of Clarkes Beach), with its hypnotic loop of surfers elegantly sliding down the aquamarine waves. But it’s the hidden oases around Broken Head that really wow. Kings Beach, Whites Beach and Brays Beach have a wild beauty that’s made even more precious by the fact that getting to them is an adventure in itself.

If you’re going to do the coastal walk to the Byron Bay lighthouse, stopping in at The Pass Cafe on your way back for breakfast or lunch is an excellent way to refuel after the climb. Overlooking The Pass beach, this cafe has a relaxed atmosphere, and is a great spot to relax and enjoy a refreshing drink or nourishing meal. After my hike, I opted for their nourish bowl which is packed with salad greens, roast pumpkin, mushroom, avocado, crunchy sprouts, a superfood nut mix and finished with a simple lemon and olive oil dressing.

Address: 1 Brooke Dr, Byron Bay Opening Hours: 7am – 2pm, daily Instagram: @thepasscafebyronbay. With stunning views of the iconic “The Pass” surf break, The Pass Cafe is a popular hang out by Byron Bay locals with big hearty servings from menu favourites such as bacon and eggs to vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options.

If casual, laid back dining is your style with great cocktails, wood fired pizza and all the ambience, Treehouse on Belongil might just be your new favourite. Located across the road from Belongil Beach, this is a locals fave to pop into after a day swimming and surfing at the beach.

Wind up Lighthouse Road, take a left on Brooke Drive, and you’re at the Pass Cafe, a relaxed little eatery sandwiched between gums and casuarinas above The Pass. Be prepared for boardshorts, sand on the floor, and salt in the air—it’s a favourite with both locals and tourists, and for good reason. Go with reliable all-day dishes like buttermilk pancakes and eggs benny or seafood standouts like the beer-battered barramundi and salt-and-pepper squid.

As you might guess by the name, The Pass Café is situated just off the beach at The Pass and offers distant views over the beach and across the bay. In a secluded spot surrounded by parkland, the café has a large shaded terrace with wicker chairs and tables and more seating indoors. Breakfast dishes are straightforward but substantial and include buttermilk pancakes, eggs on sourdough, a gourmet bacon and egg roll, and a fruit and muesli section.

Look no further than the Pass Cafe, which is situated on its namesake beach, overlooking one of the area’s most famous surf breaks. An all-day breakfast menu is offered up in this leafy green setting. Here you can sit and take in the sound of the crashing waves as you dine on meals like corn, halloumi and pea fritters or an amazing burger if you’ve worked up an appetite in the ocean; we highly recommend the yakitori grilled chicken burger.

Just five minutes from Lighthouse Road, The Pass Café is the perfect spot for a lunch you won’t forget. You’ll come for the view but stay for the food. Surrounded by shady trees and an expansive deck, The Pass Café overlooks all the surf action of the famous beach below.
